My Fans

Photography is the true passion of my life. Nothing in life gives me the pleasure that I get when I get "The Shot" in a shoot. I find that "The Shot" seldom needs a great deal of editing. Don't get me wrong Photoshop is always a good tool to have, but my personal preference is to have my photos as pure as possible with the exception of covering scars or blemishes and possibly a little skin smoothing. I believe my style as a photographer while shooting is fun, light, and easy with a calm demeanor. I enjoy working with new people as well as the people I have already worked with. I believe my style allows the model to relax and be themselves no matter what campaign we are doing work on. I believe that relaxed atmosphere lends a great deal to the final outcome of the shoot. I am not accepting very much tfcd work at this time. It would have to be a truly special or interesting concept for me to donate time to it at this point.

About me:

I have been a photography enthusiast for over 25 years. I have always found something magical about capturing the beauty in my life and recording that beauty as much as possible. I am 47 years old and think and feel much younger in many aspects. I am married to a woman I have been with for 9 years. I am very fortunate that she is not a jealous person and is highly supportive of me and the time I put into my work. She said while watching me shoot after a few very stressful consecutive days "I see your passion and how happy you are when you shoot". She has been awesome for me. I have a dog and two cats that are as special to me as children would be. Overall I am a pretty upbeat individual and love bringing that energy to a shoot.

About my business:

I have my own style and am finding that many people like the work I do. I have several different "packages" for those needing new portfolio work. I do everything from ad work to playboy style work, also maternity and infant photography, and pet photography. I also do product photography, evidential construction photography, finished product photography for architects, engineers and contractors. I have done some real estate photography for real estate agents. Basically any photographic needs you may have I love doing it. I am happy as long as I have a camera in my hand and shooting something of interest.

I am doing little to no tfcd work anymore. The only TF I am doing at this point is work that will give me large exposure. I am open to ideas there. My images have produced income for many of the models I have worked with. If you are serious about your career.....I am serious about helping you but everything worthwhile in life has a price. I am not the cheapest in town that is for sure but you get what you pay for.

CONTACT ME NOW for rates and booking time. I do accept paypal payment as well. With my shoots you always get magazine quality images! Ialso supply the make up artist, hair stylist and posture coach.

You may want to note! I do not provide your pics the same day of the shoot. I do not give you every image I capture. My work does not leave my shop without proper editing performed. Sorry if that does not work for you but I am not letting my work float around being used for whatever purpose.

Yes I have had a few of them in the past and they are probably still hanging out somewhere I just don't recall where at the moment. Anyway, welcome to my new blog spot I will be keeping this updated hopefully much better than before I am really not good at posting blogs. The things you will not see here.....What I am having for breakfast, how many times I peed today so far, what my medical issues might be, How cute my dog was today (unless I took pictures of him) or if I got laid last night or not.

Those of you that know me...know that I am not about telling all my personal crap online. I find it a little arrogant that people would want to know all the boring crap that goes on in my life and the exciting stuff well it's just none of your business lol.

Here is what you will find....ALOT of pictures. I am very particular about the images I display anywhere. I am not just another guy with a camera. I like my techniques that I use some are considered unorthodox to some people and they don't like it (that is ok with me, everyone is a critic, especially if they have no talents of their own) there are alot of people that do like my style and art and I say thank you to you all.

I have been in the photography world for most of my adult life in one way or another either as a hobbiest for a very long time, a semi professional photographer and a professional photographer. No matter what you want to label it what I know is I love this art. Some of my happiest times are behind a camera. I love capturing beauty in all forms. That is not to say that everything I shoot is considered beautiful but it is relative to a persons taste not what some critic says.

I respect the work of others, even if it is not my particular taste I do not express my opinion of their work in a negative way. We as artists are all passionate about our art! If someone else doesn't like your style, your vision, your creative flair...........Screw 'em you didn't do it for them you did it for you. Now that is not to say if you have a client that wants something specific you should have that attitude. Once they agree to pay you......You are obliged to bend to their tastes and you never know you might find something in it that you like as well.

Be advised there will be nudity on this site so if you do want to see nudity, if it offends you in anyway, I am not going to apologize for it I am one of those people that believe the female form is one of the most beautiful works of art ever so if it offends you.....THEN JUST DON'T LOOK AT IT! it is actually a pretty simple concept.

So thank you again for stopping by and viewing my blog. You can also visit my website which is currently under construction at http://www.jonmulkeyphoto.com other things that you will see here is projects that I am undertaking or finishing up depending on what they are.
